Red, White, Blue Cup

I was looking at the Applied Teams List for this tournament that's set for this weekend.
This is a Liverpool tournament.
Why doesn't any of the other big clubs participate in this tournament?
Heck, there's hardly any independent clubs in this thing also.
I remember my BB playing in this tournament when we were with the Texans '02 Dirty South about 3 years ago.
It was pretty well ran.
What happened? There's hardly any teams in this thing!
LP '02 Elite's playing in the U-15 Bracket.
3 FC Dallas teams in the U10 Bracket.
1 FC Dallas team in the U11 Bracket.
2 FC Dallas teams in the U12 Bracket.
3 FC Dallas teams in the U13 Bracket.
2 Plano League FC Dallas teams are in the U14 bracket, both coached by Coach Khastehdel (Silver and White teams).
1 FC Dallas team in the U17 Bracket.
There's only 1 Texans Boys team, and that's a U7 team.
And there's STILL no schedule out yet.

Seems like this is first mention on RWB on this forum...maybe that's why?

What does other club teams not participating in this tournament have to do with this being the first mentioning of the RWB Cup on this forum?

I just meant that the General Tournament Discussion forum may be where many hear about local tourneys. Never saw anything posted about RWB tourney there. Just a thought, feel free to disregard.

All Coaches should know what tourneys are being played.
I wish LP Owen was in this one.

Hey @KNolan06. I wasn't running at you about it.
I totally apologize to you if it came out that way.

No worries at all. Your original question was one I had been asking myself as well.

by SnookumsConCarne 12/8/2015, 3:35 pm

Well, Liverpool can't boycott the Texans & FCD Tournaments (DC qualifiers).

Concerning schedules, may want to take another look...

Cool!
Thanks!
LP Elite Fagen's playing U-15 in the Red, White, & Blue Cup this weekend.
They WILL have a tough schedule, but these youngsters are really good.
What makes it tougher for Elite is that they have a game Friday night. An early game at 9:30am Saturday. A game at 6:30pm Saturday evening.
And play LP Owen Sunday at 1:30pm in Classic League.
If Elite beats Owen in CL, they are #1 for the Fall season, which qualifies them for the Dallas Cup.
Oh, by the way, the U-15 Finals is at 1:30pm Sunday.
